CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Feed formula for maggot breeding?

1. What is the feed formula for maggot breeding?

Fly maggots are insect protein feeds. They can be used to feed various poultry and aquaculture. 1. As feed, the cost can be reduced by 30-40% or even more than the original feed.

2. Fly maggots themselves contain antibacterial substances. Using fly maggots as feed can increase the immunity of animals and reduce the use of drugs, thus achieving ecological farming.

3. The product has high nutritional value and contains no drug residue.

The formula for using fly maggot powder as pig feed (for fattening pigs only) is as follows: For reference: 10-30kg fattening pigs: (%) corn 31, wheat bran 38, soybeans 4, rapeseed cake 8, fly maggot powder 7, whole bran 10, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1, calcium carbonate 0.5, salt 0.5. 30-60k fattening pigs%) corn 27, wheat bran 28, soybeans 3, broken rice 7, rapeseed cake 8, fly maggot powder 5, whole bran 15, oil bran 5, calcium hydrogen phosphate 1, calcium carbonate 0.5, salt 0.5. 60-90kg fattening pigs%) corn 32, wheat bran 28, soybeans 3, broken rice 5, rapeseed cake 8, fly maggot powder 3, whole bran 15, oil bran 5, calcium hydrogen phosphate 0.5, calcium carbonate 0.5

2. How to raise maggots in pots?

This method can be used for small-scale production. Each plastic basin produces about 1 to 1.5 kg of fly maggots. It can feed 50 to 75 pheasants. Put fresh animal viscera, dead rats, etc. in places with more flies, let the flies lay eggs on them, put them in the morning and collect them in the evening, and put the collected fly eggs in a large basin with a diameter of 6 cm (or a plastic bucket with a diameter of 30 cm). Sprinkle water in the large plastic basin to keep it moist and cover it. After 2 to 3 days, the maggots will grow out. This method can be used to breed fly maggots in the wild without introducing species.

To feed fly maggots, feed them from small to large amounts of food, that is, fresh chicken manure and pig manure are put into a basin at a ratio of 1:1. A plastic basin with a diameter of 60 cm is fed with 1 kg of feed per day (half the amount for barrel farming), and then sprayed with 100 ml of 3% sugar water (or waste liquid or molasses from a sugar factory). After 4 to 5 days, maggots will grow and be fed to animals. Feeding method: Pour water into the basin, stir gently with a wooden stick, remove the fresh maggots floating on the water surface, wash and disinfect, and feed the animals directly. Pour the slag water into a biogas tank or manure pit for fermentation and sterilization. If used to feed turtles, eels, and fish, it can be poured into the pond together with the slag for feeding.

3. How are maggots cultivated?

1. Necessary conditions for maggot breeding:

(1) Natural conditions: Temperature is a necessary condition for maggot breeding. When the temperature is below 20℃, the flies stop breeding or enter a hibernation state, not eating or moving. Plastic sheds can only be used for seasonal breeding. In late autumn, severe winter, and early spring, the temperature does not meet the requirements, so breeding in the shed is futile.

(2) Maggot feed: The feed for productive maggot breeding must be cheap waste, preferably chicken manure produced by professional chicken farmers. If 3 catties of chicken manure is used to produce 1 catties of maggots, a lot of feed is needed for productive breeding. If you buy soy sauce residue, tofu residue or other waste, the cost is too high and the result is often not worth the cost.

(3) Self-consumption ability: It is best for the family to be a professional poultry or fish farmer to engage in productive maggot breeding, so that it can produce and consume maggots by itself, thereby reducing the feed cost of poultry and fish and improving economic benefits.

Second, the location of the breeding site. Fly maggot breeding is to a large extent harmful to hygiene. Therefore, when choosing a breeding site, pay attention to the following points:

(1) Stay away from residential areas: Chicken manure or other waste piled up in the yard will allow flies to enter the house and bite and crawl around, affecting human health.

(2) Pay attention to the year-round wind direction: Pay attention to the local year-round dominant wind direction and set up the maggot breeding farm on the leeward side of the chicken farm to prevent the odor from drifting into the breeding room and the chicken farm, affecting the healthy growth of the breeders and the chickens.

(3) Stay away from water sources: Maggot breeding farms must be far away from self-supplied water sources and public water sources to prevent sewage from seeping into the ground, causing water quality deterioration and affecting the water use of chickens.

(4) Waste dumping site: A productive fly maggot breeding site must have a dedicated area for the dumping of chicken manure and fly maggot breeding waste to prevent environmental pollution.

3. Construction of breeding rooms and sheds

The area of ​​the insulation room and shed is calculated as 1 square meter for every 1 kilogram of maggots produced. Rooms and sheds that are too large are not conducive to heat preservation, and too small cannot guarantee the output. This is a major problem in maggot farming, which involves investment issues. If funds permit, a cold-proof insulation room can be built for year-round farming; if funds are insufficient, seasonal greenhouse farming can be carried out. Simple outdoor farming is affected by temperature and rain. The farming time in the south is longer and that in the north is shorter. This method of farming can neither guarantee the output nor harm environmental hygiene, so it is not recommended. The following points should be paid attention to when constructing a shed for productive farming:

Cold protection and heat preservation: To ensure that the indoor temperature of the greenhouse is above 25℃, the indoor walls should be of a certain thickness, the doors and windows should be tight, and there should be heating and temperature control facilities indoors. The temperature of the plastic greenhouse is too high in summer, and it is difficult to reach 25℃ in cold seasons, so it is not suitable for breeding.

Rain and sun protection: Pay attention to rain protection when breeding in the shed to avoid damaging the breeding environment of fly maggots. In the midsummer season, pay attention to avoid direct sunlight to prevent the fly maggot feed from drying up and causing the maggots to die.

The specific structure, scale and shape of rooms and sheds can be adapted to local conditions and do not have to be forced to be consistent, as long as they are applicable.

4. Productive breeding management

The productive breeding management of fly maggots can be roughly divided into two parts: inducing flies to lay eggs and the growth of maggots.

(1) Female flies have the instinct to hatch eggs safely, so they usually lay eggs in a quiet place rich in nutrients or in a sheltered place. To understand this habit of female flies, you can use plastic square plates, cans and other containers, put nutrients (meat bones, soup residue, fish viscera, watermelon rinds, wheat bran, sugar solution and other waste) in them, and place them in a quiet place to lure flies to lay eggs. When the eggs hatch into maggots, you can move them into chicken manure to let them grow.

(2) In the feeding and management of fly maggots during their growth, it is important to understand that after the maggots mature, they no longer need to be fed with feed and begin to crawl outward into the soil to pupate. The maggots should be collected or caught in a timely manner.

There are two types of fly maggot breeding: dry and wet.

(1) Dry breeding is: spread chicken manure on plastic sheeting or cement floor, 80 cm wide, 10-15 cm high, and no limit on length. Move fly eggs or hatched larvae onto it, sprinkle water to maintain a certain humidity, and the eggs or larvae can hatch and grow.

(2) Wet breeding is: build a non-leaking pool of 30 cm deep, 60-80 cm wide and of unlimited length in a room or shed, put water in the pool, put chicken manure into it and stir it into a thick slurry, move fly eggs into it, and they will hatch into maggots and grow. Regardless of dry or wet breeding, when the fly maggots grow, the maggot manure should be cleaned up in time and replaced with new chicken manure regularly to increase production.

5. Processing and Storage of Maggots

(1) The collected or fished fly maggots should be promptly put into hot water to kill them, then fished out and sun-dried (baked), or directly mixed into corn meal and fed promptly. Wet maggots mixed into corn meal should not be left for a long time to avoid mold and deterioration.

(2) The daily output of fly maggots is high, and the moisture content can be controlled after drying, making it easy to store for a long time. When processing fly maggots, rotten and deteriorated dead maggots should be picked out to avoid affecting the quality of maggot powder.
